[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 266330, member: 6705"] This sounds familiar... Last year difficult child 2 was allowed to write his essays using a computer (speech recognition software at school). This year, not so much. When he did his last "reading enrichment project" he was behind (last minute as usual) so we used the speech-to-text function of the stepmommy... I type faster than he does, and it was getting late! I included a note to the teacher regarding this, got a thank-you email, and no points were taken off for it. I do like the idea of keyboarding. Many small children know what they want to say, and I know from experience (!) some have more trouble writing it than typing it. difficult child 2 is slow at typing but much faster than writing. He has Occupational Therapist (OT) for this, and has improved about 1000% from 2 years ago, but it's still a struggle. [/QUOTE]
